I'm really worried because I've been dealing with breathing issues and pain in my left chest and shoulder for the past four years. I had a chest X-ray, and it came back normal. Why am I still experiencing these symptoms? Should I be concerned, or are there other tests I should consider to get to the bottom of this?

I'm a bit anxious after having been on AKT3 for 4 months since May 8, 2017. I'm really hoping to hear that this treatment has worked and the TB is gone for good. How will I know if my body is free from TB now? Are there any specific signs or tests that can confirm it's completely eliminated?

I'm a 25-year-old NEET PG student, just found out I have MDR TB about three months ago. Some symptoms were mild, but they've got me on this long-term treatment instead of a shorter regimen, they said it's better. So far, I haven't had any problems, it's just routine meds and all. My diet's regular and alright. But now, there's some slight discoloration from the Clofazamine that's starting to show, and it's kind of annoying. Is there a way to tone it down? Also, can this 18-month treatment fully cure MDR TB? My CXR is showing normal, with just a small organized effusion that's under 10cc on the lateral wallhoping it vanishes. What are the chances of a relapse, and any tips to prevent that from happening? This is really on my mind and it's messing with my studies.
donot worry the medicines which you are taking will cure the disease. If you try boosting you immunity by eating nutritious diet it will prevent relapse. drink lot amount of water
